Legal Structure

Why you need a legal structure

To protect your committee members and insulate individuals from financial risk, you will need to incorporate your organisation. When you incorporate, you’ll need to choose a legal structure.

Does this mean we have to register as a charity?

No – not all community groups and beneficiary organisations are charities. There are other options which may suit your group better.

What options are there?

There are a number of different structures, take a look at the Sported governance e learning or the resources below for more details on each structure.
